TRACKING OLD TVR...HELP,

[l200AJC]

Anyone own or has any information on a TVR TAIMAR

REG: UHG 422R
Last known colour: white and brown, custom body mods.
Owned by my dad, Peter Carroll, ex fibreglasser tvr

And there's me thinking you wanted help setting the tracking.........

I was looking on my PC and found the next best? car with UHG-423R perhaps the brother car :-)

The car show-up on Cazana, thus: "This 1977 TVR on numberplate UHG 422R was first registered on Thursday 14th of July 1977. The numberplate UHG422R was first registered near Preston. It was painted gold previously", and "MOT valid until 14th July 1980". Sounds like it is either languishing in a barn somewhere, or maybe has gone to the great Bristol Avenue in the sky -- hopefully not. Good luck with your hunt, here's a pic of my Taimar when I went to see it under construction at the factory in 1978, maybe your dad is one of those chaps in the background? Likewise I have lost track of where my car is now, it was last heard of in Switzerland, chassis number 4319FM.

This one left our shores a couple of years ago, note the bottom line "Export Marker"...............
